Easter Weekend Happenings

While we generally try to keep our planned activities to a minimum, this week was jam-packed. By the end of the weekend we were all exhausted, but the good kind of we-really-had-an-amazing-weekend exhausted.

Saturday started out with Cora's gymnastics lessons. She just started these a couple of weeks ago and is the youngest on in her class, but is still able to easily execute all of the exercises.

After gymnastics, we went to the Easter egg hunt at her school Each kid was allowed to grab 6 eggs and 1 special golden egg. They exchanged the six eggs to the Easter bunny for a bag of goodies and got to keep the golden egg. Cora is obsessed with the gold egg (she calls it a gold pear) and has been carrying it around with her all weekend. Cora wasn't super interested in the Easter bunny, but did spend quite a bit of time later wondering whose dad was in the bunny costume.

After the Easter egg hunt we headed up to Columbus. We met up and had an early dinner with my college roommate/friend and had and husband. While technology these days has really helped people stay in touch, there is nothing like good old face-to-face catching up.

Sunday, we headed to a quick Easter egg hunt in the graveyard and then the church with the family. After church, we spent the afternoon eating good food and hanging out with the family. Cora is finally at an age that she can run around with the older cousins, so it was a little more relaxing for me and Ben.

After all the festivities, Ben, Cora, and I had a lazy evening at home playing Cora's new easter game, chatting, and having tickle fights. Perfect way to end a busy weekend.
